Hamzah Wald Maqbul – Hayat alSahabah Allahs Involvement in His Creation 20150224.mp4

Allah

says

in

that

there wasn't an Ummah,

There wasn't an Ummah or a nation of

people

except for a Warner came to them.

This is

an indication that

first of all Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

is,

has a connection with his creation.

So there's a set of people or philosophers

that call themselves deists.

So they say, yeah, we believe god created

the earth because there's a fundamental

fallacy

or incoherence in

not saying that the universe was created by

something because nothing

happens on its own. And if there's no

creator, it's as if you're trying to say

that everything happened from nothing, which is

it's unobservable and it's an irrational thought. So

there's a group of people called deists they

say that

that Allah Ta'ala is like a like a

clock maker that made a clock and then

let it run on its own

And, that's not that's not what we believe

about Allah Ta'ala.

But Allah Ta'ala has an intervention with his

creation

and how how should we be surprised that

Allah would intervene

with his creation

and send a messenger to them that tells

them what he wants from them and warns

them about what what dangers they may face

if they don't obey him. Why is that

such a surprise? We believe that the intervention

of Allah Ta'ala in the creation is so

deep that if Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala ever

took his attention in his tawaju

of his

away from the creation, that creation wouldn't exist.

Right? The idea of the analogy of the

the

the analogy of the clock maker is assuming

that the clock has an existence other than

what the clock maker gives it. That the

clock maker takes separate parts, puts

Everything else our wujud and our existence is

is contingent on his existence. It's not a

separate existence. So when we say

when we read the, you know, the Quranic

expression that the affair of Allah Ta'ala is

nothing except for

that when he says to something be and

it is. It's not that he said be

some time ago, so many 1,000,000 and billions

and trillions of years ago and things existed

from that time and they've been existing on

their own since then. Rather the commandment of

Allah ta'ala of Kun, of B is something

that's with us in every second of our

existence. If it wasn't, we would

we have no

reality of our own. We have no reality

of our own. So a person who understands

that to them there's no there's no ajab,

there's no

wonder or marvel at the fact that Allah

ta'ala would also

send a Messenger because the intervention of Allah

Ta'ala in his creation is so deep already.

Sending a Messenger is a small matter. Allah

Ta'ala in every instant has taken

responsibility and charge over

every particle that our body is made out

of.

So why would, you know, sending a messenger

would be a small matter

compared to the depth with which Allah Ta'ala

is involved in his creation.

And Allah

says,

in this,

in the in the Surat Surat Saba,

that we did not send you except for

to all

people except for to all people as a

bringer of glad tidings and as a warner

but rather

people most people don't know about don't understand.

And Allah says that we did not send

you except for as a bearer of glad

tidings and as a warner. These are all

sifaat attributes or descriptions of the Messenger of

Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. As for the

the the

the idea of the message of Allah, salallahu

alaihi wa sallam,

being sent for,

for all mankind for all mankind. Part of

this is also something that we have to,

remind ourselves about again and again as well

because we live in a time when,

many people,

even

Muslims, even Muslims themselves,

what the hectic and the reality of iman

is inside the heart, Allah knows best. There

are many people who say that they're Muslims,

but, you know, the windows are all closed

and the lights are off inside.

We don't make a fatwa and kufa on

somebody until they say that I don't believe

it anymore. But there are many people who

claim that they're Muslims but the that, you

know, the the the lights are off, nobody's

home inside. Allah protect us from it. So

we should be very careful about these things.

That when we say that that the prophet

was sent to all people, that means all

people in all times that people exist.

That means the Quran, the sunnah, it's not

old fashioned. It's not.

It's not the tales of the ancients. It's

not something incompatible with modern life. It's not

something incompatible with contemporary life.

To say that is to assume that the

message of Islam is a furoori message, not

an usuli message. The message of Islam in

this usuli message. It's a message of principles.

It's not a message of details. The details

fill in,

later. So if you live in, America in

2015,

that means that you use your cell phone

like a Muslim. If you use Facebook and

Twitter, all that to protect us. But if

you use them, then use them like a

Muslim. If you, you know, drive a car,

you drive a car like a Muslim would

instead of, you know, someone cuts you off

and you flip on the bird and then

scream

4 letter words at them. You know, you

can see that. You see that this happens.

There's someone, you know, they something like that

happens to them and they say, oh, blank

beep. And then there's somebody, something like that

happens.

They'll they'll say they'll

say something like that, that you do those

things like a Muslim. So it's something that

we should remind ourselves. And if someone else

says something silly, if, you know, that, oh,

this is old fashioned or that's old fashioned,

if if you think they'll listen and if

you can do so in a nice way,

remind them that Allah Allah

to all people. That means every time also

that people exist in as a bearer of

glad tidings and as a warner. Not to

say things like that. May Allah,

forgive us and and set

us straight.
